Americans should read this in school. I had no idea about so much recent history covered in this book.
Graphic: War, Death, Torture, Confinement, and Violence
Moderate: Death of parent, Child death, Terminal illness, Sexism, Religious bigotry, Police brutality, and Misogyny
Minor: Medical content, Medical trauma, Suicide, Colonisation, Classism, Gun violence, Hate crime, and Islamophobia
Content is focused on the details of growing up during the Islamic Revolution and the ensuing war between Iran and Iraq. Images show confinement, torture, and death, but avoid outright gore.
